Black Country Heroes Awards

Building the Future, Celebrating Our Youth: Varlowe Sponsors Black Country Heroes

We are proud to announce our sponsorship of the Black Country Heroes initiative. This inspiring program recognises the remarkable individuals who make this region a vibrant and thriving place. We’re particularly excited to support the Future Stars category, which shines a light on the exceptional young people shaping the Black Country’s future.

Why We Support Black Country Heroes

At Varlowe, we believe in the power of community. We’ve been rooted in Wolverhampton for over two decades, serving clients across the UK with our expertise in CNC machining, steel fabrication, specialist pipework solutions, and more. But beyond engineering excellence, we’re passionate about giving back and investing in the future of the Black Country.

The Black Country Heroes program perfectly aligns with our values. It celebrates the individuals who embody the region’s spirit of hard work, dedication, and a commitment to excellence. These are the very qualities that drive our team at Varlowe.

What is the Black Country Heroes Future Stars Category?

The Black Country Heroes Future Stars category recognises extraordinary young people aged 21 or under who have demonstrated significant progress and growth in the past year. These young heroes can excel in various fields, from academic achievements and sporting prowess to entrepreneurial ventures and personal development journeys.

The program acknowledges their potential and celebrates their contributions to the Black Country. By highlighting these inspiring individuals, it encourages others to pursue their dreams and make a positive impact on their communities.

More information about the category can be found on the Black Country Heroes website.

Why We Champion Young Talent

As a family-run business, we understand the importance of nurturing young talent. The young people of today are the engineers, innovators, and leaders of tomorrow. They are the ones who will shape our communities, drive progress, and build a brighter future.

By sponsoring Black Country Heroes Future Stars, we aim to:

  • Recognise and celebrate exceptional young people: Their achievements and dedication deserve recognition, and we believe it’s crucial to showcase their stories as an inspiration to others.
  • Encourage young people to pursue their dreams: We want to send a message to young people in the Black Country that anything is possible with hard work and dedication. Black Country Heroes provides a platform to showcase their talent and motivates them to reach their full potential.
  • Invest in the future of the Black Country: By supporting young talent, we invest in the long-term success and dynamism of the region. These young heroes are the future workforce, entrepreneurs, and community leaders who will shape the Black Country’s path forward.

Spotlight Varlowe’s Youth Initiatives

Our commitment to young talent goes beyond the sponsorship of Black Country Heroes. We are proud to have an apprentice in our CNC machine shop, actively investing in developing future engineering professionals. Additionally, we’ve been strong supporters of local up-and-coming athletes and associations, such as boxers and local football teams. We believe in empowering young people to reach their full potential, both within the engineering field and in their chosen passions.

The Black Country Heroes initiative thrives on community participation. Here are ways you can get involved and celebrate the region’s exceptional individuals:

David Fry’s Rally For Heroes

A very close friend of Varlowe Industrial Services is partaking in this years Rally For Heroes.

Rally For Heroes is a driving event aimed to raise money for amazing charities around the UK.

This year, they are raising money for the outstanding SSAFA.

David Fry and his Bee Cool Performance Bentley Continental Gt will drive through 10 countries that have been affected by war, in just 10 days, before returning back to the UK.

“So this is our first time entering in the Rally For Heroes, and we hope to be able to raise a total of £3000 for the SSAFA representing a pound for every mile we have complete during the Challenge.”

SSAFA is the oldest Armed Forces charity which was started in 1885 to offer support to the diverse changes its personnel and veterans have to face.

The work they do for our servicemen and their families is second to none, providing practical, emotional and financial support.

“Whenever our Forces need them, SSAFA will do whatever they can to help. They’ve been doing that since 1885, through two World Wars and through every conflict since. But SSAFA can only do that with the help of people who support them. Every 5 miles driven represents the life of a serviceman or woman who has fallen in combat since the start of the Afghanistan conflict. This is especially important for SSAFA, as they provide specialist support to hundreds of bereaved and injured service families affected by recent conflicts, including Afghanistan.”

Faye “The Grenade” Blount

Varlowe Industrial Services have sponsored Faye Blount, better known as The Grenade, who is an extremely talented Martial Arts fighter from Wolverhampton.

Faye’s been training kickboxing for 2 years this October, which she has taken to it like a duck to water and puts every effort into every lesson. In the first 3 months she travelled to France to take part in championships and since then has gone from strength to strength. Entering competitions across the country, she has won two Southern area title belts, two English titles, over ten trophies and medals, but most importantly, always leaving the ring with valuable lessons to take into the next bout.

To keep on top of her game, Faye trains 5/6 days per week, honing her skills and learning different practices of fighting styles. She started training just kickboxing, but now also trains k1, boxing and Muay Thai, with each style having its own disciplines which helps in and out the ring. Being well versed in multiple arts enables Faye to dominate the competition, continually adding to her already impressive achievements.

As part of our local sponsorship program, Varlowe and BJH are proud to be apart of Faye’s journey. We will keep you updated on Faye’s progress here, but you can also check out The Grenades Facebook page here.

As always, we wish Faye the best of luck in each venture of her career.
